Load Shedding and Overload Shedding in Power System Defense Schemes
Load shedding is a controlled reduction of demand to keep the remaining system stable. In defense-scheme logic, the best target depends on topology, load priority, island balance, and overload location.
OLS versus UFLS
Overload shedding reacts to equipment or corridor overload, while under-frequency load shedding reacts to frequency decline caused by supply-demand imbalance.
Trip target selection
A good trip matrix considers MW need, customer priority, restoration strategy, and whether the trip will actually relieve the overloaded path.
Learning in the app
Use the simulator to create overload conditions and observe how the target feeder changes when bus topology or generation availability changes.
